Hi


I had a run with following namelist and in outputs I am observing some
grid scale noises, I've been told to decrease the time step and turning on
the diff_6th_opt=2, I have done so and the noises are much less but
haven't resolve totally rather has shifted from inland to over water.

I don't have any idea what to do next.
